Lyrics
Wehilei
Tell them
Mo'olelo mai no ka lāhui ho'i
Eō
Can you see the flowers grow?
Or feel the 'āina in between your toes?
No you'll never know
Our land you stole
And you wonder why our people cry?
Desecration is our why
No you'll never know
Our land you stole
As I wipe the tears from my eyes
My kūpuna can hear my cries
No you'll
Never
Never
Never
Never
Know how it felt when you stole
What you have is stolen
All that greed that you've got
Where's it going?
To fill your pockets soon you'll reap what you're sowin'
No you'll
Never
Never
Know how it felt when you stole
What you have is stolen
All that greed that you've got
Where's it going?
To fill your pockets soon you'll what you're sowin'
No you'll
Never
Never
Know how it felt when you stole
Eō
Eō
Eō
Eō
I will use my native rights
To stand for what I believe is right
No you'll never know
From our people you have stole
The dance and chants remind me "why"
Of who I truly am inside
No you'll never know
From our people you have stole
As I wipe the tears from my eyes
My kūpuna can hear my cries
No you'll
Never
Never
Never
Never
Know how it felt when you stole
What you have is stolen
All that greed that you've got
Where's it going?
To fill your pockets soon you'll reap what you're sowin'
No you'll
Never
Never
Know how it felt when you stole
What you have is stolen
All that greed that you've got
Where's it going?
To fill your pockets soon you'll reap what you're sowin'
Paradise is at the end of where that rainbow lands
Some call it beach front property I call it Hawaiian homelands
You ship out our people so you can count your golden tokens
The forest has no trees our island system is broken
Opinions falling on deaf ears yet we have spoken
The only time you ask us for our words is for your slogan
On our knees we hold hands crying with our mouths open
Speechless cause even the air we breathe it doesn't get lost it gets
Stolen
All that greed that you've got
Where's it going?
(Where does it go?)
To fill your pockets soon you'll reap what your sowin'
(No, no)
No you'll
Never
Never
Know how it felt when you stole
What your have is stolen
All that greed that you've got
Where's it going?
To fill your pockets soon you'll reap what your sowin'
No you'll
Never
Never
Know how it felt when you stole
Tell them Wehi
Take care your sands and your waters
Same way you take care your sons and your daughters
E ola Hawai'i
Eō
